Calling from fake Microsoft Support. Two days in a row received calls from persons sounding like they were calling from India saying they were working for Microsoft and they received alerts saying my computer was being attacked because Microsoft Defender expires eight months after you purchase your computer. I fell for it on the first call and allowed him access to my computer, stupid of me, but when he opened the notepad and covered my screen so I couldn't see what was being done to my computer I became suspicious. Then they said I had to purchase a new Microsoft Defender license for $269. At this point I said I would have to do some homework and would call them back if I want to purchase. They said their company was Globalized Microsoft and to call Stephen Clark at 888-514-1650, doubt it's a real number. I don't have caller ID on my home phone so not sure what number they called from. When I wouldn't purchase immediately they left my computer in what said Safe Mode and hung up on me. Took me hours to hopefully undo what they did, hope they didn't get my entire identity info. Next day a Charlie, who was the same guy, called again and when I said I had just been called day before he denied that they ever called and started their entire same script. Told them I didn't believe them, wasn't interested and hung up. Hope the damage hasn't already been done. Don't be stupid like me and allow a person who randomly calls you access to your computer. Their script scares you so it's easy to fall for it before reason gets to your brain.
